Make sure that you fully understand the use, displays and limitations of the instrument. If you have any questions about the manual or the dive computer, contact your SUUNTO dealer before diving with the dive computer.

Always remember that YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY! When used properly, Suunto D6i is an outstanding tool for assisting properly trained, certified divers in planning and executing sport dives. It is NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR CERTIFIED SCUBA INSTRUCTION, including training in the principles of decompres- sion.

WARNING	Diving with gas mixtures exposes you to risks that are different
	from those associated with diving with standard air. These risks
	are not obvious, and require training to understand and avoid.
	Risks include possible serious injury or death.

Do not attempt to dive with any gas mix other than standard air without first receiving certified training in this specialty.

5.1. The Suunto RGBM

Suunto’s Reduced Gradient Bubble Model (RGBM), utilized in the Suunto D6i, predicts both dissolved and free gas in the blood and tissues of divers. It is a significant advance on the classic Haldane models, which do not predict free gas. The advantage of Suunto RGBM is additional safety through its ability to adapt to a variety of situations and dive profiles.
